I've seen this to Micky

Mostly the bees put the flat walls to the sides as we usually install the
foundation. But sometimes they put the flat sides of the cells upwards (and
downwards), 90 degrees tilted. And even in feweer instances I sometimes
have seen the rows of cells in a slope of about 20 degrees.
